Total gibberish, awash in meaningless symbolism
April 7 1999
By A Customer
- Published on Amazon.com
The previous review were clearly written by author David Fideler as the review is written in "make no sense" style of the author. Trying to wade through twenty pages of this book is an exercise in total mind torture. If you are just dying to throughly waste your time, this is the book for you. This could only have been written by someone who smoked marijuana in the attic and never got any fresh air. A demented elitist work of non art by someone by an author even a mother couldn't love. Go ahead. Read twenty pages. Tell me if I am right. Nobody could get through this book.
